From Houston east winds are from the south and moderate trans-Gulf migrants are arriving on and near the coast. A large mass of thunderstorms are exiting the New Orleans area with 54 knots (!) of upper winds. West of Houston the upper winds are from the NW and W blowing from the interior to the coast. I imagine those will bring a wave of Clay-colored Sparrows and similar species.This is easy to see on the Wind Map. wiJohn C.
